A third claim for the Perrot system isthat it allows of the use of an axle with a bigger roadclearance than is possible when the brake operating mech-anism is carried in the axle itself. The objection can beraised against some of these designs that they are notvery suitable for cheap production. An example is thespherical universal in the brake cam on the Metallurgique,shown in Fig. 15. The method of brake shoe operation onthe Bellanger is shown in Fig. 16, with details of the brakein Fig. 17.
